"Hey are you experienced with coderpad?" "No obviously I have never encountered coderpad in my 20+ years of writing software and will have a hard time using a simple online text editor." Facebook interviewers are such insulting morons to senior engineers.

I agree that actually running code, seeing the errors and fixing them in like 10 seconds is a common behavior amongst those of us who have been coding for ages. One can write code that works without doing that but it is a drag and wastes time.
